Actually safe and effective mosquito KILLER

[Pablo]

Holy cow we are having a warm winter.

Insects going NUTS.

Breezeway FULL of mosquitoes.

Is there a good spray that won't kill us, but actually kill the mosquitoes? No joke, nothing nasty.

I still love, Skin So Soft by Avon. I've also tried some of the "safe for baby/toddler" products we've bought for my Son. They don't work as well but still give some protection...

 

[Pablo]

Huh?

Need a spray killer for outside in the breezeway

Bifen XTS, it isn't a contact killer though, spray it on the bushes around the house. On the plus side, it kills roaches, ants, termites etc.

no.

Check out this one. No DEET, no smell, not greasy. Not a killer (is there actually such a thing?), but a very good, safe repellant. They make a spray, as well, but the lotion lasts longer.

That is not what the OP is asking for.

Bifen IT or bifen xts are mosquito killers.. I spray my bushes and plants when I spray for earwigs 3x a year.
but that stuff is nasty and will kill you.

Seems like the correct answer!!

can't you light an UV light away from the breezeway?

I have one in the shop and one in the garage. They kind of work. Maybe a good idea!

Then there's this bug spray alternative that's supposed to work quite well.

Still not a mosquito killer.

He was asking for a mosquito killer you are linking repellents.

Mosquitoes are not attracted to UV light.

Do bug zappers really help fight mosquitoes?

If the mosquitoes have been keeping you away from your picnic table, you might consider a bug zapper. Find out if they really work in this article.

Don't tell my zapper, or the mosquitos it killed

Mine attract some. I see dead ones in the tray. Also, I thought the CO2 thing was disproved
